Cover the Grid is an installation employing temporary marking paint on a timeworn but treasured community lot in North Lawndale, a neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side. Fabricatedas part of the 2021 Chicago Architecture Biennial the ephemeral landscape mural leverages cutting-edge tools, low-impact methods, and community engagement to reorganize and enhance a public space with modest resources and a low ecological footprint.
